Stable URL Concerns?
• Working with other people
• Want to be able to transfer ownership without changing URL
• Use a GitHub organization
• github.com/papyri/documentation
• papyri.github.com/documentation
Stable URL concerns• Web 2.0 darling GitHub dies
• http://help.github.com/pages/#custom_domains
• Buy a domain name
• Alias it to GitHub pages
• GitHub dies? Buy static web hosting, upload from your local Git repository, change domain alias to new web host
Stable URL concerns$ curl -I http://mojombo.github.com/HTTP/1.1 301 Moved PermanentlyServer: nginx/1.0.13Date: Fri, 01 Jun 2012 17:55:47 GMTContent-Type: text/htmlContent-Length: 185Connection: keep-aliveLocation: http://tom.preston-werner.com/Expires: Sat, 02 Jun 2012 17:55:47 GMTCache-Control: max-age=86400
Overview
• Versioning
• Free
• Start minting (good?) HTTP URI’s with your data with no support
• Obviously NOT a magic bullet for getting RDF representations of your data
WHYValue of RDF/linked data is in PEOPLE (driving machines) being able to use and discover your data:- without having to know about it directly- without having to speak your languageTo answer questions you may not be able to anticipate.
